Equipe: Upcoming and past shows

So far, shows have been listed in the order they were created. There’s room for improvement, and many of you have already pointed this out. This becomes even more important the more shows you run.

We have now divided them into two different tabs.

Upcoming
This scope filters for shows that are still happening or haven’t ended yet. Specifically, it finds shows where the end date is either today or later, or where there is no end date set (meaning they might be ongoing). It then sorts the results by the start date in ascending order, putting those with no start date first, and if two shows start on the same day, it sorts by the show’s ID in descending order (so newer shows come first).

Upcoming


Past
This scope filters for shows that have already ended. It finds shows where the end date is before today and then orders them by the start date in descending order (so the most recent shows come first). If two shows started on the same day, it sorts by the show’s ID in ascending order (so older shows come first).

Past


If you want to find a specific show quickly, search shows with Shift+Cmd+J (macOS) Shift+Ctrl+J (Windows)
 
In case you don't any upcoming shows, there will be a link to setup a new show.


We have a lot of other new features and fixes, will comeback with another write up.

This issue is now resolved. When a competition is published, any start list no longer present will be automatically deleted from online.equipe.com.

Fine-tuned the result presentation for dressage team competitions where there are no individual starts, for the team start list we also fixed a bug where the start time did not appear on the desktop view.

Equipe Entry: Introducing application fee for entry.equipe.com

This affects organizers using entry.equipe.com.

At Equipe, we don't have a sales team that makes individual deals or tries to squeeze the most out of every transaction. We don’t A/B test the call-to-action button on our landing site. Our focus is solely on creating the best possible product for running equestrian shows.

However, there comes a time when we need to put on the business hat.

Equipe Entry

You asked us to create a "simple" entry system—nothing special, just to collect entries and take payments. Well, it turned out to be a lot more work than anticipated, and the wish list keeps getting longer. We have made a number of big improvements that you can read about further down on this site.

Over the past three years, our suppliers of infrastructure and products have continuously increased their prices. We have tried not to pass these increases forward. In fact, since 2015, we have not raised our prices at all.

When it comes to entry, we have not even charged for the usage of it.

To continue evolving entry.equipe.com, we will add a small application fee on payments that are collected via the system. This will be effective from 2024-07-01.

This change helps us keep improving the system you rely on while handling the rising costs from our end. We promise to keep making Equipe Entry better and more efficient for you. 

Introducing our new monitoring feature for Live Scoring in Dressage

We are so happy to finally be approved for FEI Paperless, and it's great to see many organizers running dressage shows.

Scribe Monitoring.mp4 1.32 MB


We've been developing a new monitoring feature that we believe will be extremely useful for everyone involved in live scoring.

There is no need for any settings. Once you enter the results registration for dressage, you will automatically see all connected scribes.

Every 5 to 10 seconds, they will send a heartbeat, which includes the currently active rider and, if available, the current battery level.

If all devices are synchronized, the judges letters will all be green. If one of the scribes is on a different start, they will appear orange. If we lose a scribe, they turn red. Grey indicates that we have not yet received any heartbeat message.

In the start list, you can see which rider each judge is currently monitoring.
Start list with indicators what each judge has active


As judge by F has another start active all judge letters turns yellow on the monitoring panel.

This monitoring panel will always be visible in the top right corner of your screen.


Equipe: Dressage percent difference threshold and improved deduction for 7 years and children

New federation settings. Threshold for score differences in Dressage. If the percentage difference is higher than the set threshold, a warning (delta) icon will be displayed.

Shows threshold warning

We have also improved the calculcation of the missing marks.

Warning missing mark or penalties differ



Deduction on the 7 years and children marking sheets, we have finally separated percent deduction on assessment and technical into two different fields witch makes the calculation and reporting for FEI much more straightforward.


Equipe: Customizable Arena Colors

It's now possible to set unique colors for different arenas in the scheduling interface. This enhancement allows for a more visually organized and personalized schedule display, making it easier to distinguish between multiple arenas at a glance.
